Kimbo Restructures: What Happened and What Comes Next
Kimbo founder and owner Mark King reveals what led to the production pause, why the company is restructuring and relocating, what it means for current owners, and his plans for the Kimbo 6 and Kimbo 8.
Northwood’s 2027 Arctic Fox and Wolf Creek updates bring fresh graphics, contrasting interiors, Starlink-ready prewire, and roadside assistance when the road gets bumpy. And did we mention more solar? Consider that the sunny bonus.
Time’s up! Put down your Number 2 pencils and pass your papers in. How did you do on the Truck Camper Knowledge Test? Let’s find out!
Is truck camping the secret to a healthier, happier life? As it turns out, our time on the road may be doing far more for our physical and mental health than we realize. As if we needed another reason to load the camper and hit the road.
We spent a day at the @soaringeaglecampers factory in Wakarusa, Indiana. Why? Because the best way to understand a camper is to see exactly how it’s built.
From welded tubular aluminum frames and tightly fitted closed-cell foam insulation to composite panels, wiring, sealants, cabinetry, and final assembly, we followed the process from raw materials to a finished camper. Along the way, we asked plenty of questions and got to know the people behind the campers.
Factory visits give us a deeper understanding of the materials, processes, decisions, and culture behind a brand. That means when we write about Soaring Eagle, we can tell you more than what’s on the spec sheet.
Come inside the factory with us and catch a glimpse of how a Soaring Eagle camper takes shape.

Take a walk around the 2026 @lancecamper 1172, the largest truck camper in Lance’s lineup.
This hard-side, double-slide camper packs a ton of living space into the back of a long bed truck. Depending on the layout, you can choose the traditional rear sofa and full booth dinette or go with a rear two-person face-to-face dinette and a pair of power-reclining theater seats in the driver’s-side slide.
Beyond the seating, the 1172 brings a spacious dry bath, north-south queen bed, 8-cubic-foot refrigerator, 42 gallons of fresh water, and up to 1,200 watts of available solar. In other words, this is a camper built to stretch out, settle in, and stay awhile.

We stopped by the @stapll.co headquarters in Durango, Colorado, to get a closer look at the different mounting solutions available for their fender racks.
From fuel and water cans to lockable cases and recovery gear, STAPLL has developed a variety of ways to turn unused exterior space into useful storage.
So what do you think? Would you STAPLL your truck? Let us know in the comments.
